About the role

  • You contribute your ideas to our in-house HR software and work on extending and optimizing existing features or developing new ones.
  • For these projects you implement backend services (REST APIs) based on PHP 8.3 and the Laravel framework.
  • We coordinate twice daily as a team (stand-up meeting & daily wrap-up), and depending on current projects you may work independently or, when needed, collaborate with your team via pair or mob programming.
  • You assess how our new UX concepts can be implemented most effectively and always find solutions for complex background processes.
  • In addition, you are responsible for the smooth operation of our software and write clean code (static code analysis using PHPStan) and tests (unit and integration tests) to ensure this.
  • If colleagues from other departments need support with our software, you act as an internal point of contact for questions.

Requirements

  • You have several years of experience programming with PHP (at least v8.x) and have worked extensively with Laravel.
  • You have solid knowledge of relational databases, preferably MariaDB 10.
  • You have experience with agile software development (Scrum) and actively embrace team spirit.
  • You are familiar with software architecture (e.g., SOLID, design patterns).
  • You are experienced working in a macOS development environment (work device: Apple MacBook).
  • You have experience in automated testing, especially with PHPUnit.
  • You have a feel for digital innovation; creativity, attention to detail, and analytical thinking distinguish you.
  • You have good German language skills, both written and spoken.
Benefits
  • Programming without limits | As a small to medium-sized company, there are no rigid structural constraints — you have plenty of freedom to implement your ideas.
  • Comprehensive onboarding | From day one you'll have a dedicated mentor. We'll guide you — you'll never have to navigate things alone.
  • Flexible working hours | We have no core working hours. Your flex-time window ranges from 6:00 to 19:00, so you can balance work and private life.
  • Bike lease or public transport ticket | If you prefer commuting sustainably by bike or public transport, we'll cover your JobRad (bike lease) or JobTicket.
  • Fitness flat rate | Exercise makes you happy and healthy. With all Hansefit partner gyms you train for only €20 per month — we'll cover the rest.
  • Anniversary & birthday | We celebrate your milestones: on your birthday and your work anniversary you'll receive a voucher from us.
  • Be who you are | We don't impose a dress code. Come as you are. Stay as you are.
